| − | ‘’’Slicer for IGT’’’ is an extension of 3D Slicer designed and customized for Image Guided Therapy. 3D Slicer is comprehensive medical image processing and visualization software for medical image computing. There are many technical advantages to use Slicer for IGT research.

| − | '''Slicer for IGT''' uses an external software '''Opentracker (including libopentracker.so)''' to access tracking and imaging devices. '''Slicer for IGT''' also links library version of Opentracker (again libopentracker.so) in it self. As is shown in Figure on the right, Slicer and Opentracker act as two separate software each loading its specific configuration files (config.xml and config.xml_1). The figure also show tha each loads identical library (libopentracker.so). The Optracker software can also run on a separate computer on the net and send tracker reading over the net (Opentracker on net). Note it is opentracker, not Slicer, that connects to the tracking device.

| − | '''Module''' represents a page window in Slicer, where developers can design appliation specific GUI and associated C++ codes. The codes are usually stored in one directory under Module directory of Slicer, and self-containing for one application. One application directory have one Gui class and Logic class. An instruction to build a module can be found at [[
